Abstract - OPPORTUNITIES bring together migrants, citizens, and stakeholders on national, local, and regional levels in several African and European countries, encouraging them to listen to each other and to create shared narratives of migration. The main objective of these cross-talks, a method of collaborative storytelling designed for the project, is to establish common ground for a fair conversation that seeks to integrate African and European perspectives. On national and transnational levels, we seek to introduce the notion of level telling fields, initiating a new debate on migration and integration. OPPORTUNITIES invite civil society as well as policy makers to adopt and implement the fair dialogue approach introduced over the course of this project.
